Houston Zoo’s Young Supporters flock to Hotel Zaza

Jaws dropped as the Houston Zoo’s Young Supporters entered Hotel Zaza’s 11th floor Grapevine Ballroom on Wednesday for their annual summer cocktail party. The event aptly titled “ZooZa” held on the museum district venue’s top floor offered breathtaking, floor-to-ceiling views of Hermann Park and the city skyline.

More than 300 nouveau philanthropists flooded the space in a matter of minutes. Early arrivals posed in a Lucky Shots photo booth and scored $25 gift cards from Lyft, a mobile-app friendly ridesharing company.
